About the Artist

Jannis Kounellis (1936–2017) was a pioneering Greek‑Italian artist and a leading figure associated with the Arte Povera movement. Best known for installations that use “poor” materials such as live animals, coal, sacks, steel, and fire, Kounellis transformed the possibilities of painting, sculpture, and performance and became one of the most influential European artists of the postwar period.
